Ghost in the Graveyard Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (audio product)

You like to use film soundtracks in your game. But if your players have seen the movie, the music will call to mind scenes from that movie – not the story your game is telling. Don’t take them out of the game! The “Ghost in the Graveyard” soundtrack calls to mind the classic synthesizer-driven horror film scores of the late 1970s and early 80s, without the baggage of film-specific associations.

“Ghost in the Graveyard” is the scariest 1980s horror film never made!

Arlington Station, WI, Spring 1983: A group of teenagers gather at a creepy old church for a party... couples steal away to fool around among the headstones in the nearby graveyard. Soon the graveyard is awash in fresh blood as one by one the nubile young students are picked off by…what? A vengeful spirit? A mad, deranged serial murderer? Look, it doesn’t matter. There’s no movie. Just a kickass soundtrack with an awesomely 80s flavor.

The “Ghost in the Graveyard” soundtrack download includes:

• 9 music tracks

• Special collector’s set of lobby cards from the nonexistent film

(English AND French versions!)

"A delightful conceit... after carefully creating a completely ficticious movie soundtrack so that you can generate the right background and moon for your horror game without distracting players who have seen whatever horror movie whose soundtrack you might otherwise be using... They give you some movie posters and adverts for the ficticious movie that the soundtrack was porportedly written for! Even before I've finished listening to the soundtrack - and I tend to use music as background and inspiration when WRITING rather than playing games - this has spawned a plot. [Looks round for lurking players... nope. All clear] How about starting a horror game, probably set in some small Mid-West town, by the characters going to see a horror movie? This one, of course. You've got some wonderful handouts here after all. And then... things start to happen. Maybe some of the movie characters come to life, start chasing them around the cinema. Or when they emerge after the screening, they find themselves in the film for real instead of in their own hometown. Or it may be a complete red herring, the one normal thing - catching a movie - that happens in an otherwise twisted horror game..."– Megan R., Featured DrivethruRPG reviewer

The nine tracks that make up this “soundtrack” to a nonexistent movie are short (the longest tops out at 3:42, and all nine tracks combined last fewer than 25 minutes), simple, and repetitive. Even the “Main Title,” the most complex of the comp [...]

These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format

These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
